FAQs

Tents usually cost a little more to rent than an existing facility, but tents have options that other venues simply don’t. We come to you, in the location you want. A tent provides more privacy and convenience than a public location or hall, as well as many more décor options. And our lighting and heating options offer you three seasons of possibilities.

After a few simple, straightforward questions, we will prepare a computer-designed layout for you at no extra cost. With your help, we will design a customized floor plan showing your head table, seating arrangement, dance floor, bar area, gift table, cake table, etc. This will help accurately determine the amount of space needed for your wedding. Of course, we understand that the exact number of guests will change as the date of the wedding approaches, which we will happily accommodate. With our three tent styles available in virtually any size, we have something to fit everyone’s special day.
